This bill provides that for the medical residency training state matching grants program and for the awarding by the university of Iowa hospitals and clinics of federal residency positions as established under the federal Balanced Budget Act of 1997, priority shall be given to eligible applicants who are residents of Iowa, attended and earned an undergraduate degree from an Iowa college or university, or attended and earned a medical degree from a medical school in Iowa. The bill also requires that persons who are awarded either of these types of medical residency positions shall be provided the opportunity to participate in a rural rotation to expose the resident to rural areas of the state.
